The problem with having everything synchronized is that sometimes it becomes annoying or duplicated, therefore, sometimes we need to configure certain aspects of our iOS device that make life a little more comfortable. We might think that this is what they intend with the synchronization between social networks, but sometimes it causes more annoyance than support. In this case, the integration between Facebook and iOS is total, to the point that we can also have Facebook contacts on our device. The question is: Why do we want Facebook contacts that we don't even have a phone number for? So Today we are going to teach you how to delete or hide Facebook contacts on iPhone and iPad.
To hide Facebook contacts
This section has always caused problems, but Apple refuses to "fix" it. When we enter the contacts application, at the top left it says «Groups«, And nobody really knows what it is for, in fact many users do not even know that it is there, but it is used to hide or show the contacts according to groups at all times. However, the vast majority of mortals have all the contacts together, and do not create groups. If we enter this option, the groups will appear depending on the applications that have access to the contacts, in this case Facebook.
We enter Groups, uncheck «All Facebook contacts»And they will be hidden from our agenda.
Delete Facebook contacts
When the dog is dead, there is no more anger. I choose not to sync them. For this we turn to the adjustments, in the Facebook section, will appear the classic switches of "Contacts", "Facebook" and "Calendar". In this case, we will press the «Contacts» switch to leave it deactivated, and they will disappear from our device permanently. If we see that time passes and they do not disappear, click on "Update Contacts" that appears just below these light blue switches.
